Shaq O’Neal has never hesitated to offer his opinion, regardless on the topic. With basketball, his takes almost always should come with the #hottake hashtag. His post on Instagram was no different.

Look, the Lakers’ all-time team should definitely be favored over Chicago’s. Spacing between Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Shaq would be a little worrisome – and I’m not quite sure about Elgin Baylor over James Worthy – but the basketball discussion is besides the point.
I want more of this from athletes. Picture Michael Jordan’s reaction seeing this on social media. Whichever device he saw the post from is no longer with us, right? There is less than no chance he didn’t immediately throw the phone, tablet or even desktop computer across whichever room he was in. And yet, no reaction publicly.
How much fun would a back-and-forth be between Shaq and Jordan?
Picture Kobe Bryant, who recently hasn’t had any issue giving his opinion publicly, explaining to Scottie Pippen exactly how he’d rip him to shreds, if he felt that was the case, as Dennis Rodman tries to steer the conversation toward North Korean relations.
The scene would be GLORIOUS. We need more fun like this in sports, which are, you know, supposed to be entertaining.
